## Usage
- Run Bloopair from the Homebrew Launcher
Once launched, the Wii U menu should open

- Once you're booted into Tiramisu and are in the Wii U menu, press the SYNC button on your console and controller
- Wait until the Controller is connected

If a controller had been paired in the past, simply turn it on again and it should reconnect.
After rebooting the console or exiting System Settings, relaunch Bloopair.

The DualShock 3 needs to be paired using a USB cable. After the initial pairing it can be used like any other wireless Bluetooth controller.
- While launching Bloopair from the Homebrew Launcher, hold down the A button on the Gamepad.
You should now be in the USB pairing menu.
- Open the Bloopair pairing app from the Homebrew Launcher. You should now be in the USB pairing menu.
- Connect the DualShock 3 using a USB cable to the front or back ports of the console.
- The screen will say "Paired!" once the controller has been successfully paired.
You can now remove the USB cable from the controller. Press the PS button to connect it to the console.
- Press the B button to exit to the Home Menu
You can now remove the USB cable from the controller. Press the PS button once back on the Wii U menu to connect it to the console.
- Press the HOME button to exit to the HBL

The DualShock 3 is now ready to use with the console.

Possibly, I've for now added support for all the controllers I currently own. Maybe I can get a few more controllers which I could add support for.
Pull requests for different controllers are always welcome.

### My console gets stuck on the Wii U Menu screen
There seems to be an issue with the Homebrew Launcher Channel. This isn't something that can be fixed in Bloopair itself.
See the following [issue comment](https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Bloopair/issues/17#issuecomment-932974462) for more info.

## To-Do
- Support more controllers
- Bluetooth LE support (the Wii U's bluetooth stack seems to support this?)
